Lange Nieuwstraat en omgeving, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Schutterstraat sits in the heart of Utrecht's historic centre, where the streets hum with students and café life. At 42 m² it's compact, but the 16th-century shell gives it character you won't find in a new-build. The asking price of €400,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €1,058,893, partly because the home is small. For context, studios in Utrecht vary widely in price and size.
The neighbourhood Lange Nieuwstraat en omgeving is a dense, historic pocket of the Binnenstad. One resident who grew up here describes it as 'cosy without obligations': quiet streets, the pretty Twijnstraat nearby, and friendly neighbours. The area has a very high address density (5,617 per km²) and is dominated by pre-war buildings (86%). Most households are single-person (78%), and the average household size is just 1.5. It's a place where you know your neighbours but still have your own space.
Your daily bread comes from Jumbo, just 36 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. For school runs, Agatha Snellenschool (primary) is just around the corner, and the Utrechts Stedelijk Gymnasium (secondary) is a five-minute walk. The municipality Utrecht packs an extraordinary number of amenities into a small area: restaurants, a park, and the central station a ten-minute walk.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Brecheisen Makelaars Utrecht B.V. and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

I grew up there. It's quiet. Twijnstraat is beautiful. We hardly have any trouble with Altrecht. It's also nice that that's possible in the city. The neighbours are nice.

About Schutterstraat 17, Utrecht
